Rating: - Cult Classic Needs to come out on DVD
This movie was brilliant, and marked by appearances by classic actors such as Lee Majors, as well as the lovely and endearing Jennifer Love Hewitt and the hysterical Will Friedel best known as Eric Matthews from boy meets world, compliments an average script, and along with slapstick comedy and brilliant directing, brings this cult classic masterpiece which has gone relatively unknown to a solid hit teenage film which would put most of the cliche teen drama/comedys of our generation to shame. Other reviews write this movie off as being cliche, what they fail to realize is that it was never cliche when this movie was made... great movies like this are what made it cliche.
Bring us a DVD soon, as I desperately need a new copy, and one brough up to the most recent technologies.
Rating: - Strictly For JLH Fans
The Trojan War (1997) starts with a pretty good premise, even if it was stolen wholesale from 1987's "Some Kind of Wonderful". Semi-geek virgin, desperately in love with the schools unattainable beauty who has become disillusioned with popular guy she has been dating. Protagonist's gorgeous (anywhere but in this school) tomboyish best friend is secretly in love with him? Cut to climatic party scene at which all this is sorted out.
Unfortunately they stole only the premise and not the actual script (or the cast who would have been too old anyway), so the production falls far short of its predecessor. It also falls far short of its 1998 successor "Can't Hardly Wait", also featuring Jennifer Love Hewitt-this time as the unattainable beauty. In fact the writers of that film appear to have taken the script from "The Trojan War" and re- written it for an audience with IQ's about 30 points higher. So ... Read More
Rating: - I thought it was good.
I have seen it before on regular tv, one of those sunday afternoon things. I thought it was pretty good, but I also like JLH as well, and feel she wasn't in the movie enough. Thats my opinion though. Still, it was a good, goofy movie about teens and love. Pretty typical story line and was predictable, but how can one assume its not with the actors/actresses that are in it.
